Detailed Description

2 octave handbells - Level 1+

SKU: JF.MDT1061

Composed by Various. Arranged by John C. Dare. Published by Dare Team Press (JF.MDT1061).

As the title suggests, this collection for 6 ringers (B4â€“F6) features Christmas titles with suggestions for non-seasonal titles. In E-major The Christmas Star (Starlight) gives five of the six Level 1 ringers an opportunity to use their "black" bells. The Heavenly Host (Cherubim) is scored for both bells and chimes. Bell changes for two positions plus changes from chimes to bells put the composition at Level 2 despite its Level 1 rhythms. Although The First Nowell is definitely Level 2, the rhythms should not be too hard if the ringers know the melody or words.
This carol can be used beyond Christmas because stanza 5 describes the magi, making it suitable for Epiphany.
